Got a half mile long gravel drive.
Keeps getting pothole in the same places. I keep a pile of 1/2" crusher run gravel to fill them before I use the grader blade and land leveler to smooth things out. 2-3 weeks later, the potholes are back.
The guys at the Friday morning McDonalds meeting claim a box blade with rippers will dig out those potholes so they don't come back...as fast.
Willing to buy a box blade if it will help, as my better half has this theory that if you go fast enough, you just sail over the top of the holes. Kinda hard on suspensions.
Yes, I tell her to slow down, and that works for a few days. But her positives have far out-weighed her negatives for 32 years, so....
What do you think? (about the box blade)
Thanks
